Zara, Massimi Duti, Pull and Bear are the best for men !

Same with Korean fashion, some maybe fine but generally I see luxurious brands tailored for women that when men wears them it looks like you know what I mean...

NAIA has T2 and T3 as far as I know, Terminal 1 is the one being tagged as worst airport, but I dont find NAIA bad. It may not be the best for now but definitely not the worst.

Obviously Jakarta have more highway, also better healthcare, airport, port facilities (busier and larger), airports too. If we are talking about infrastructure of a city, i don't really see Manila being better in anyway in any of the thing i mentioned.

T2 looks like one of the provincial airport in Indonesia to be honest, T3 is alright but half of it is defunctional.

Angeles City is not even considered part of Mega Manila though its just 2hours drive from Manila via NLEX. And mind you its just a part of Metro Angeles that has this kind of nighlife ala Pattaya. Its just probably 3 or 4 streets crisscrossing. And to think it would only attribute to a meager 5% of the whole of Angeles City and 1% of the whole Metro Angeles.

Obviously, how bout trying to use the same scale for both cities?

^ the map of Manila has EDSA as a highway, when it's really not because it's not controlled-access. There are intersections and cars can enter at many different points instead of through entrance ramps. I think SLEX/Skyway is the only real highway in Manila right now

I agree with neMarl

you need to have a similar scale size map of both cities to say that Jakarta has more highways, otherwise its pre mature.

What I can say is that Metro Manila has 3 Skyways (elevated highways) around 40 kms combined plus the 3rd level soon of Skyway-3 for Taft area.

Here are other major higways of M.Manila that connect cities.
based on my map used when driving

EDSA Ave - 54kms. long (exact lenght)
TAFT Ave. - 10 kms. estimate
Commonwealth Ave. - 40 kms. estimate
Aurora Blvd. - 25 kms. estimate
Shaw Ave. - 20 kms. estimate
Katipunan Ave. - 30kms. estimate
A. Bonifacio Ave. - 35 kms. estimate
Magsaysay Blvd. - 20 kms. estimate
Roxas Blvd. - 35Kms. estimate
South Express Way - 45 kms.
C-5 Road - 60 kms. estimate
Ortigas Ave. - 40 kms. estimate
Buendia Ave. - 15 kms. estimate
Marcos Highway - 30 kms estimate
Felix Avenue - 10 kms. estimate
P. Tuazon Ave. - 15 kms. estimate
Congressional Road - 40 kms. estimate
Muntinlupa road - 25 kms. estimate
Daang Hari road - 20 kms. estimate
Fairview to Grotto - 40 kms. estimate
West Ave. - 20 kms. estimate
Quezon Avenue - 25 kms. estimate
Roosevelt Ave. - 15 kms. estimate
Visayas Ave. - 10 kms. estimate
Mindanao Ave. - 10 kms. estimate
Sucat Road - 55 kms. estimate
Mindanao Ave extension to Nlex - 30 kms estimate
Macapagal Blvd - 10 kms estimate
611 NAIA Road - 5kms. estimate
Sumulong Highway 15 kms. estimate
Cal. to Malanday Mc Arthur - 15 kms. estimate
C. Raymundo Avenue - 20 kms. estimate

Not to include sub roads (streets and roads), FLY OVERS, INTERCHANGE, TUNNELS inside per cities.

Unless you can provide me a complete map of the highway system that shows something better, i wouldn't believe in the number of km of roads (some of those are not highways) you posted.

And only 3 skyway? lol.

not a highway vid, but this drive around BGC is really nice.
